The biggest difference from the last time the Nuggets and Clippers squared off in the playoffs lies in one of the few remaining players on either side, L.A.’s Ivica Zubac.

With emotions high and with just over six seconds left in the first half, the game got heated between the two teams, stemming from an initial altercation between James Harden and Christian Braun. Officials then gave personal fouls to Harden, Braun, Aaron Gordon, Norman Powell, Kris Dunn and Nikola Jokić.
